>shows a picture of an old man
>Charles Dickins or J.K. Rowling?

My knowledge has declined from taking this quiz. 100%. They used the most famous images of all the people and were like "Ghengis Kahn or Charles VII??" and even if I didn't know it was Ghengis the picture was of a fucking asian painting of him. Over half of these are American and any American that did decent in middle school history would ace this quiz as well. Remedial. 0/8 wouldn't take again even for a free point.

I stopped at question 89. How long was that quiz? Anyway, I missed two. The first being that Marx guy who's first name is not Karl, and the second because I clicked the wrong answer when Rasputin came out. Was trying to just get it done. Anyway, as Ford put it most of the answers are obvious due to process of elimination. I didn't know who a few of those people were but the names made it obvious.

Famous WWII-era German general. He was in charge of the African campaign. Wehraboos love to circlejerk over him, talking about how apolitcal and totally-not-a-Nazi he was. Even though he was a fucking Nazi.

Ah the dude who had to beg big brother Hitler to earn a chance to lead an armoured division, did good and got promoted way beyond his capabilities. Damn site didn't even get his name right, guess he's a Scot now.

Got 97% and told I had a PHD :) I got mixed up between:
Aretha Franklin and Billie Holliday
W.E.B. DuBois and George Washington Carver
Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder
I feel especially bad about the last one because I have no idea what either of them looked like and only guessed Charles's picture was Wonder because he happened to be wearing dark glasses...

You know enough historical figures to have graduated from college. Well done!"

I know shit about history.
I fail almost every single history class I take.
I guessed on over half of them.

I mean like.
Just random guessing, with two options, you're bound to get 50% right unless you're trying to get them wrong.
So I feel like 60% is just barely better than blindly guessing, and is a lonnnng ways away from a history bachelor degree.
